TV crew finds comfort food at Creemore Kitchen by Trina Berlo You gotta eat there. When it comes to comfort food, the Food Network’s You Gotta Eat Here is putting Creemore Kitchen on the list of must-eats. A crew spent two days on location at the Mill Street restaurant last week getting to know owners Sam Holwell and Caesar Guinto, while also becoming closely acquainted with some of the restaurant’s signature dishes. “It’s been very delicious,” said host John Catucci. On the first day of filming, chef Guinto prepared a pork belly steam bun, fish sandwich (beer battered with the beer from across the street, notes Catucci) and a sweet corn ice cream sundae. The day was dedicated to interviews, preparing the recipes and taking close ups, the food porn, according to Catucci. On the second day, Creemore Kitchen’s regular customers were invited to partake in a meal during two sittings, with a few people selected to talk on camera about their food.

Hotwired truck causes fire at Stayner business by Trina Berlo A fire broke out at Huronia Auto Service in Stayner Friday, April 3 when a flaming vehicle rolled into the building. “The call came in as a vehicle fire,” said Clearview Township deputy fire chief Roree Payment. “When I arrived the vehicle was actually inside of the building.” He said a flatbed tow truck caught fire and then the engine started and the vehicle, which was in gear, drove through the overhead door, igniting the building. A man who was working alone at the time attempted to put out the flames using two fire extinguishers. Crews were just finishing their ice
water rescue skills training when they were called to the business, located at 207 Industrial Rd. Initially two trucks responded to the call just before 4 p.m. Once the scale of the fire was known, crews from all five Clearview fire stations attended and had the fire under control in about 45 minutes. The male worker was transported to hospital to be assessed for smoke inhalation. The damage to the building, primarily in the garage area, and the tow truck is estimated at $400,000 to $500,000. Because of the high cost of the damages, the Office of the Ontario Fire Marshal was called and the Ministry of Labour was also contacted.
